I really enjoyed this post and agreed with a lot of what Ibrahim said. The simpler history of the web was nice, and it's something I try to maintain with this blog. I'm running Kirby, which is PHP, but does use Vue as well. That's still pretty good by today's standards though.

As I've been learning PHP by doing a course and a few fun little projects, I've thought about building my own, super simple blog in PHP. Problem is, I really enjoy using Kirby.

One final point: I'm not sure jQuery was as great as Ibrahim makes it out to be - I can't speak for the earlier days, but when I used WordPress with jQuery, it was a bloated mess. 🤷🏼‍♂️
